Welcome to today’s reflection on the Gospel of John. Have you ever wondered why the same experience can transform one person while alienating another? Think of two children of an alcoholic: one follows the path of addiction, the other vows never to touch it. Or consider encounters with Jesus—some became devoted disciples, others fierce enemies.
In this video, we’ll dive into John 1, where John the Baptist boldly declares Jesus as the Lamb and Son of God. We’ll explore Jesus’ first words: “What are you looking for?”—a profound invitation to examine our deepest desires. Beneath our wants for money, peace, or security lies a hidden longing for God, who alone satisfies.
Drawing from a poignant hospice story and prophetic calls to repentance, we’ll uncover Jesus’ call: “Come and see.” Join me as we reflect on self-examination, turning back to God amid worldly distractions, and discovering true joy in Him. Let’s begin!

The Feast of the Baptism of the Lord marks the end of Christmas, revealing the profound link between Christ’s birth and his baptism. John’s baptism of repentance was scandalously new: it called even God’s chosen people to acknowledge their sinfulness and need for cleansing. Jesus, sinless, submits to this baptism not for himself, but to stand in our place—to take our sins upon himself in loving substitution. As the Father declares, “You are my beloved Son, with you I am well pleased,” he speaks through Jesus to all humanity. Before any miracle or cross, God already delights in us because Christ represents us. Living in this truth—that we are beloved, justified, and redeemed—not in lies of inadequacy, transforms everything.

Whenever we meet mysteries figures in Sacred Scripture, whether its Balaam blessing Israelites in the book of Numbers, or three Angels visiting with Abraham, King Melchizedek offering gifts of bread and wine, or the Three Kings visiting baby Jesus; in mystery we always encounter God revealing Himself to us. In the three Kings we see God traveling towards us for our benefit alone, not to request anything from us but simply to gift us with the gift of Himself.

This sermon explores the human restlessness for a “true home,” noting that earthly possessions often leave a lingering sense of incompletion. It reflects on the life of Jesus, who was born into a world of corruption and violence, spending his early years as a refugee fleeing the cruelty of King Herod. The message emphasizes that while modern challenges like war and poverty feel unique, Jesus entered an equally broken world to fulfill his role as the “new Moses” and the savior of his people. Ultimately, the preacher suggests that our earthly journey is that of a pilgrim, finding purpose by looking toward God rather than worldly stability.
